Learning Objectives What's book report Pre-reading My favorite book is The Old Man and the Sea. The American writer Ernest Hemingway wrote it in 1952.The book became popular very quickly. In 1953, it won the Pulitzer Prize. The main character is a fisherman. He hasn't caught anything for months, One day he catches a huge fish, but he has to fight for days to kill it. He finally succeeds, but he can't pull the fish onto his boat. On his way back, sharks eat the fish, leaving nothing but bones. This book has taught me not to give up. The fisherman fights hard, even though he loses the fish in the end. As Hemingway said, "Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated." Even though I've already read the book three times, I'm not tired of it yet. If you've never read Ernest Hemingwa, I recommend this book.
